fouled sooty spark plugs every 3months
my plugs fouled again yesterday... thought they could wait till i service my carbs. 
ok, i know my carbs are running rich. what i'm curious to know is does high revs @ neutral spoils the plugs faster? or even if i'm just riding, the plugs will still be sooty black? when i took them out, its wet & black..
anyway i actually changed them myself for the 1st time!! good feeling till i connect the fuel hose wrongly. when i start it, fuel all flowing out!! 
haha, maybe too stressed out cos i was using old iridium plugs wonder if they still work as i dont want to waste new plugs till i service my own carbs. now is just waiting for the carbtune from uk.
